ATW 2015

Event Successful!

60 participants from 14 contries have contributed to a successful 2015 edition.

The success of this event will probably push us to dedicate more resources to the argument of low and hight temperature plasma flows.

We will start dedicating soon some resources on our web site, and in planning some more activities in the future.

Participants to this event with particularly interesting and/or beautiful pictures that are willing to share them with us will shortly receive an email with some instructions on how to upload them to our servers.

Aerospace Thematic Workshops at Les Houches

Fundamentals of Aerodynamic Flow and Combustion Control by Plasmas

April 12-17 2015, Les Houches Physics School, France

The 2015 AEROSPACE THEMATIC WORKSHOP on "Fundamentals of Aerodynamic Flow and Combustion Control by Plasmas" will take place during the week of April 12-17 2015 at Les Houches Physics School, a magnificent and famous conference center in the French Alps. This conference is the fifth of a cycle of conferences dedicated to the fundamental issues in the scientific disciplines relevant to aeronautics and space development.

The previous editions of this workshop were held in Villa Monastero, Italy (2007), Les Houches (2009 & 2011) and Aussois (2013).

The conference is managed by a team from the Paris region, with Svetlana Starikovskaia (Chairperson, Laboratoire de Physique des Plasmas, Ecole Polytechnique), Christophe Laux (vice-Chair, Ecole Centrale de Paris), Jean-Pierre Taran (local organisation, Onera) and a Steering Committee composed of leading scientists in the field.

Regular participants are encouraged to submit communications in poster format for review by the Committee.

The very last news from the laboratories are particularly welcome; note that the workshop does not prepare and distribute proceedings, to encourage open communication and debate between all participants.

Venue

Les Houches Physics School, is located near the city of Chamonix, at the foot of Mont Blanc.

Housing is in single rooms, but the school features half a dozen double rooms for couples.

Skiing may be possible in April, weather permitting, and lifts are located within walking distance of the School.

A half-day ski outing down the famous Vallée Blanche, starting from Aiguille du Midi, can be organised for experienced skiers the weekend after the conference, if snow coverage and weather will permit.
